Momo

Description

Momo is a quintessential Nepali dish, celebrated for its irresistible combination of delicate dumplings filled with a savory mixture of spiced meat, typically chicken, buffalo, pork, or vegetables. These dumplings, originating from Tibetan cuisine but adapted to local tastes, are a beloved street food and household favorite. The dough is meticulously hand-rolled into small, crescent-shaped parcels and can be steamed, fried, or served in a flavorful soup. Momo’s exquisite taste is enhanced by a zesty dipping sauce, often made with tomatoes, Sichuan peppers, and spices, providing a delightful contrast to the tender, flavorful dumplings, making it a cherished and iconic dish in Nepal.
